Chapter 44 Winter Fireworks
December 21, 01:15, Port of Sapporo, Hokkaido.
The castle on the sea was about to collapse, and Maruyama Jun crawled out of it and ran towards the port along the mahogany bridge. When all the player troops evacuated from the city, they could no longer see Urushihara Ritsu, Anson Lu, and Yuri.
In the distance, on the other side of the harbor.
Urushihara Ritsu used 5 evolution coins to open a vending machine, took out three cans of ice cola, handed one to Anson Lu, one to Yuri, and kept one for himself.
"Thanks." Yuri took the iced Coke.
Anson Lu was not polite at all when he plucked the crow feathers. He unscrewed the bottle cap and gulped down the drink. Then he wiped the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand and exhaled a breath of relief:
"After finishing the dungeon, you drink the fat otaku happy water, right? It tastes like that."
"What is Fat House Happy Water?" asked Urushihara Ritsu curiously.
Yuri unscrewed the bottle cap and said calmly, "I think it means Coke."
Ritsu Urushihara is Japanese and Yuri is Icelandic, so they definitely don't understand some of the bad Chinese Internet memes that Anson Lu uses.
At this moment, there was a sudden great noise from the collapsing city on the sea. The sea surface was violently turbulent, the turbulent tide with white waves hit the coast, and the mahogany bridge broke.
Then, the entire city opened its dome slowly outward like a firework box.
"Fuck, Transformers!"
Anson Lu's eyes widened and he almost spit out the Coke he had just drunk.
Suddenly, a beam of fire burst out from the huge "fireworks box", cutting through the dark night and rising straight into the sky.
Whoosh——
The next moment, brilliant fireworks, like knocked-over dominoes, bloomed one after another in the night sky of Hokkaido.
BANG——!!!
The winter sky at this time was like the sea, and the fireworks were like ripples, spreading out in circles on the sea, continuously sprinkling scattered spots of light over the entire city of Sapporo.
The world was swaying dazzlingly like gorgeous fireworks. The splashing colors broke the brief silence and painted the figures of the three people in the same color.
"Oh..." Urushihara Ritsu raised an eyebrow, "Hanabi, I haven't seen you for a long time since I was in prison."
"Fireworks..." Yuri took a sip of Coke, his clear eyes reflecting the night sky full of fireworks, "Very good."
Anson Deer was stunned. Using the boss battle venue to set off fireworks, this game system is really fun.
But it can be regarded as "waste utilization", which is quite romantic in a sense. Rather than seeing the city sink into the sea, people would rather see it being blown into mud.
BANG——!!!
BANG——!!!
The long sound continued to spread in the night sky.
Anson Lu took a sip of Coke and observed the person next to him out of the corner of his eye.
The Icelandic girl silently looked at the sky full of fireworks, the rippling sea and the rotating Ferris wheel. Her beautiful and indifferent face was shrouded in the faint halo brought by the fireworks.
Ritsu Urushihara invited Yuri to join the union, but Yuri refused.
But there are so many people in the world.
If we don't rely on the union's mechanism, then the next time we see Yuri, unless it's a special coincidence, it will probably be a long time later.
It lasted so long that... most of the players died, and only special sequence players were left in the world. Everyone was in the same copy and could get together easily.
Anson Lu retracted his gaze, still holding an empty Coke can in his mouth, and said in a vague voice:
"I say, this Icelandic heroine."
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"Lady, please do us a favor and join our union. The benefits are great. Look at this guy, he looks like a decent person. He will definitely be able to recruit more special sequence players in the future." Anson Lu patted Urushihara Ritsu's shoulder and said seriously:
"Oh, if we stick together, won't we be invincible?"
Urushihara Ritsu took a sip of Coke, chuckled, and thought helplessly in his heart: Anson Lu is still the same as always, and he becomes frivolous when he is in such an occasion.
But after just one week of getting along, he was no longer surprised by the differences in Anson Deer.
"No." Yuri paused and said in a cold voice, "I'm sorry, I wish you all the best."
"Okay, okay, that's fine, don't feel any psychological burden..." Anson Lu used nonsense to cover up his embarrassment, "I know it's stressful to reject two top-ranked hunks in the world."
He threw the Coke can into the sea, and the Coke can broke through the sky and fell into the sea.
Anson Deer originally wanted to use a scoop to get some water, but he didn't expect that the broken Coke can would be so useless. It was swallowed up by the dark tide and sank into the sea.
"We finally found you, Mr. Anson Lu!" Two girls in kimonos ran over.
Anson Lu was stunned for a moment, then turned around and asked, "Uh...what do you want from me?"
"I'm Miyamoto Sakurako, from the Mage Team." Miyamoto Sakurako nodded and said nervously, "She's Fujimoto Natsuki, from the Archer Team. Do you remember us? You gave us instructions before."
Anson Lu touched his head and said, "Yes, yes, Kongnijiwa."
To be honest, he had almost forgotten about these two people.
When fighting against a boss, he would treat a professional army as a whole, without having to deliberately identify individuals. If anyone made a mistake, the whole group would be excluded, and the action could not be disrupted because of their presence.
Fortunately, that didn't happen.
Miyamoto Sakurako and Fujimoto Natsuki were stunned by Anson Lu's plastic Japanese.
The two of them smiled with their hands covering their mouths. Miyamoto Sakurako continued, "Mr. Adel and Mr. Yu Mingdao are looking for you. He wants you to have a dinner at Sapporo Beer Garden. It's his treat!"
Oh my god, the entrance fee is only 5 Evolution Coins, and the restaurant's food is cooked automatically by the game system. Is it really necessary to say "treat"... Anson Lu complained in his heart, but said politely on the surface:
"Okay, if they're treating me then I'll definitely come!"
When he finished speaking, he nudged Crow with his shoulder and whispered, "Are you coming?"
Urushihara Ritsu smiled and said, "That's fine, Lu-kun, I'll accompany you. It's nothing to do anyway."
"Yeah," Miyamoto Sakurako said happily, "That's great, we'll be waiting for you at the Beer Garden Restaurant!"
Under the illumination of the fireworks, their cheeks were as happy as deer in spring, and they skipped away happily.
Looking at their backs, Anson Lu realized how high his image and status were in the eyes of these players. After all, he was the one who led them through life and death situations.
"By the way, Icelandic girl, you..."
Anson Deer turned his head and the sound stopped abruptly.
The deafening sound of fireworks was still ringing in my ears, but the girl's figure had already gone away. Her snow-white hair fluttered in the wind, and her increasingly blurred back was gradually covered by the light snow at the end of the street.
Urushihara Ritsu spread his hands and drank his Coke in one gulp. "She must have gone skiing."
